b. three electromagnets placed at 90° from each other and three sine wave currents phase shifted of 120° from one another.
c. three electromagnets placed at 120° from each other and three sine wave currents phase shifted of 120° from one another.
d. three electromagnets placed at 120° from each other and three sine wave currents phase shifted of 90° from one another.
